[QUOTE="poopgiggle, post: 1967205, member: 6406"] It implies that a very well-respected and accomplished man would abandon his historical political affiliation because he wants to see a brotha in the White House. If you don't see that as an indictment of black people, IDK what to tell you. If that were true then yes. But it's not. The way that some people tend to discuss it. No one's saying that everyone who criticizes the president is racist, but a lot of the "criticism" has a pretty clearly identifiable racial subtext. How many times have you seen people on here use names for him like "Obongo" or "Obammy"? It's my experience that white people who hang out almost exclusively with white people don't see how big of a problem racism is in this country. I could post demographic data and scholarly articles out the ass, and I used to, but it's like yelling at a brick wall so mostly I just post animated gifs these days.
